HO GE Dash 9-44CW Locomotive BNSF Wedge (ATHG-1202)

HO-scale GE Dash 9-44CW Locomotive in BNSF Wedge livery is a detailed representation of a late-1990s freight powerhouse, designed to bring authentic mainline power to HO model layouts. The model features illuminated ground lights above the front trucks, front and rear walkway lights, and number boards, plus etched see-through walkway steps. A heavy die-cast frame and Genesis drive provide strong pulling power and smooth, quiet operation, while RP25 wheel contours, body-mounted scale knuckle couplers, and a full cab interior with see-through cab windows deliver a lifelike, reliable operating experience.

Sound-equipped variants add onboard DCC decoding with SoundTraxx Tsunami2 and dual cube speakers for authentic engine, horn, and bell sounds in both DC and DCC modes, with full DCC functionality and NMRA compatibility. The model is designed for easy digital setup with a Quick Plug 21-pin NEM connector and supports multiple-unit lashups. Additional prototype details include a detailed fuel tank with fillers and gauges, fine Celcon handrails, wire grab irons, coupler cut levers, MU hoses, trainline hoses, and a detailed driveline. Minimum operating radii are 18 inches (22 inches recommended) to ensure smooth operation on typical HO layouts.
